Welcome

We – The Jonsson League – sail towards distant shores in Rhumb Runner.  Here you can read our blog and find information about our amazing sailing yacht, sailing plans, cruises, experiences, about being a crew member and especially about what we think is exciting.  If you want to join the crew, then check out the menu items Cruises, Plan, Crew and About Us. You can write us a short message in the Contact Us form and we will return as soon as possible.

We sailed from Vallensbæk, Copenhagen, on Tuesday the 5th of July 2022 at 9:53 am. During the weekend family and friends passed by Rhumb Runner to say their farewells. Now we are on an adventure.

We have been on our adventure for 529 days.

Fri/Sep/2022 Af Mette

Dear All.We are still alive and have little to complain about. We are in port in Las Palmas on Gran Canaria. Mette has been on a diving course for the last three days and has coped well. She just needs a written test and she has the open water certificate in house. 👏👏 Jeppe has also been lot diving. There are many exciting experiences waiting now, where they can both dive.

Hilsen fra RR. Dear all.Now summer is coming to an end in old Denmark, but the weather is still lovely, and there are parties and festivals going on. And now everyone over 50 will be offered a corona vaccination, so we know autumn is just around the corner. We have now been in Quinta do Lorde on Madeira for a week. We have driven around the island by car and enjoyed fantastic views of the mountains. We walked on the beautiful levadas with trickling water and everything is green. It has been … [Continue reading... CLICK HERE ] about 7. Travel Letter 3/9 2022

6. Travel Letter – Hello from RR 24/8 2022

Wed/Aug/2022 Af Kirsten Halmø

Dear All.Thank you very much for all the greetings. It's great to hear from home, about all your plans for parties, trips and much more. We have been in a port close to Lisbon (Oeiras) for a few days. We have been sightseeing in Lisbon together with thousands of other tourists. Queues all the way. We escaped a little outside the centre, where there is an aqueduct from the 18th century. It stretches over a valley about 200 m in height and 2 km in length. Impressive structure. A highway passes … [Continue reading... CLICK HERE ] about 6. Travel Letter – Hello from RR 24/8 2022

5. Travel Letter – 17/8 2022

Wed/Aug/2022 Af Kirsten Halmø

Dear family and friends. I understand that you cope with the heat at home. We have had a wonderful 21 degrees. We have stayed healthy and corona-free so far, but neither have I, like Anette, taken care of fainting young women. In Spain there are only a few restrictions, for example, you must wear a facemask in public transport. Now we have reached Lisbon and the temperature has risen a bit. We sailed from Porto on Monday morning and sailed for a stretch, arriving 30 hours later. We have … [Continue reading... CLICK HERE ] about 5. Travel Letter – 17/8 2022
